Meet the Rizzos, a family that might get along a lot better if only they could tell each other the truth. Dad Vince (Andy Garcia of OCEAN'S Franchise) is the worst offender. But since the prison guard won’t even admit that “poker night” is in fact acting class, how’s he ever going to explain his illegitimate son? His daughter works as a stripper when she’s supposed to be in college, while young Vinnie Jr. (Ezra Miller of TV's CALIFORNICATION) has a secret sexual fetish that involves a 24-hour webcam and the family’s 300-pound neighbor. Vince’s wife Joyce (Julianna Margulies of TV's THE GOOD WIFE) is the family’s rock, but it’s been a year since she enjoyed intimacy with her husband, and it’s no surprise she thinks “poker night” spells A-F-F-A-I-R. When former prisoner Tony (Steven Strait of STOP-LOSS) enters the Rizzos’ lives, Joyce begins to suspect that the handsome young Tony isn’t who Vince says he is. A perfect storm of deception, half truths, and confusion makes the family members realize that the truth may not set them free, but it is easier to keep track of than all their well-intentioned white lies.

A twisted, funny, high-octane adventure, director Matthew Vaughn brings "Kick-Ass" to the big screen. "Kick-Ass" tells the story of average teenager Dave Lizewski (Aaron Johnson), a comic-book fanboy who decides to take his obsession as inspiration to become a real-life superhero. As any good superhero would, he chooses a new name -- Kick-Ass -- assembles a suit and mask to wear, and gets to work fighting crime. There's only one problem standing in his way: Kick-Ass has absolutely no superpowers. His life is forever changed as he inspires a subculture of copy cats, is hunted by assorted violent and unpleasant characters, and meets up with a pair of crazed vigilantes, including an 11-year-old sword-wielding dynamo, Hit Girl (Chloë Moretz) and her father, Big Daddy (Nicolas Cage).
